Chapter 125: A Moment of Life and Death

The route near Guiyuan Temple is not familiar to either of them, and hiding here is not a foolproof strategy after all.

The rustling sound around made Gu Wanchao wonder if she was hallucinating, she always heard footsteps lingering around.

Just as she was about to look out through the gap in the leaves, she saw a pair of sharp eyes.

The temperature of Gu Wanchao's body dissipated at that moment, and the whole person seemed to have fallen into an endless ice cave.

Those eyes carried the ruthlessness and ruthlessness of a killer, but they coincided with the nightmare when Gu Wanchao dreamed back at midnight, and in that grotesque dream, there was also such a pair of eyes looking at her.

The sound of the wind blowing down perfectly hid the killer's footsteps, Gu Wanchao didn't notice that the killer was following him at all, and he was in control of their every move, and at this time they had nowhere to escape.

Before Gu Wanchao screamed, Xiao Yuan pushed her away, "Run!" ”

Gu Wanchao stumbled and fled, but they could only watch the bushes that they had just been hiding in were chopped down, and the killer who was chasing them and Xiao Yu'an transferred the battlefield to a clearing in the dense forest at this time, and they really had no time to take care of Gu Wanchao on the side for the time being.

Xiao Yu'an pushed Gu Wanchao just to keep her away from danger.

His whereabouts were exposed, and Xiao Yu'an had to entangle with the killer head-on, but the tricky thing was that he didn't have any weapons on his body, only a dagger hidden in his boots, but he was very embarrassed to deal with.

Gu Wanchao watched all this in the dark, she knew that Xiao Yu'an was to protect her, so she naturally didn't dare to make any movement, but she saw all the thrills of Xiao Yu'an's fighting outside, and when the long sword grazed Xiao Yu'an's waist several times, Gu Wanchao would cover her mouth so that she wouldn't let herself scream.

Why did she come back for the bracelet?

If they return home obediently, their trips will not be delayed, and they will return to the capital safely, and they will not be assassinated by such wanton and reckless assassination.

It's all her fault, she shouldn't have asked Xiao Yu'an to go to Guiyuan Temple.

When Gu Wanchao fell into endless self-blame, she didn't notice the sudden breathing sound beside her.

"Gu Wanchao! Watch out for your back! When Xiao Yu'an inadvertently turned around, he saw the black-clothed man lurking behind Gu Wanchao, who was holding a sharp sword high at the moment, and was about to slash at Gu Wanchao's neck the next moment.

He just felt strange, the people who came were obviously two people, why was there only one and the other who were entangled with him......

Now there is an answer.

Everything happened between the lightning and flint, and just as Gu Wanchao turned around, the dagger in Xiao Yu'an's hand was immediately thrown.

She saw a cold light pass by, but the dagger was plunged straight into the lower abdomen of the man in black.

But such an injury is nothing to a killer who has been licking blood from the knife for many years.

"Ahh Gu Wanchao watched the man in black holding the long sword in his hand, approaching her step by step, groping around his body in a panic, trying to find an object for self-defense.

And at this moment, the two dead soldiers sent by Xiao Yu'an to protect Gu Wanchao realized that something was wrong, and it was too late.

Gu Wanchao saw the two dead soldiers who were also dressed in black, and thought that they were the killer's backups, and they were about to cry without tears, and when they were about to resign themselves to fate, the sound of swords colliding beside her made Gu Wanchao ignite a trace of hope, and when she opened her eyes and saw that it was the guard who had protected her before, the tight strings in her heart were not released at this moment.

It turned out that she was still happy too early, Gu Wanchao heard a muffled snort not far away, and only then did she realize that Xiao Yu'an, who had just been fighting with the killer, was already injured at the moment, but fortunately, a dead soldier came to share a burden for him, which gave him a gap to take a breather.

Gu Wanchao stumbled over, and saw that Xiao Yu'an's hand covering the wound was covered with blood at this time, "You...... Why are you throwing the dagger here? Not even the last weapon to protect himself from......"

Xiao Yu'an saw her crying sadly, and smiled weakly.

Now is not the time to worry, leave quickly, Gu Wanchao rolled up her sleeves and wiped her tears, her vision was clear again, she pulled Xiao Yu'an and wrapped one of his arms around her neck, "I'll take you home." ”

"It's all my fault, it's me who has burdened you."

Xiao Yu'an heard this sentence when he was confused, "I never blamed you. ”

Gu Wanchao's heart softened, but before he could take a few steps, the sound of swords behind him had stopped, and Gu Wanchao turned around, only to find that the two supporting dead soldiers had already been beheaded under the sword.

At this moment, the situation was already very serious, Gu Wanchao was powerless, and when he was desperate, he touched a small bottle in his arms.

There is no endless road.

In order to promote her Radiant Pavilion, she always brings her own incense powder.

Gu Wanchao didn't want to think about it, so he opened the cork and sprinkled it on the face of the man in black who was chasing after him.

"Ahh Blinded by the incense powder.

The killer screamed and took care of himself.

Gu Wanchao knew that this was a delaying tactic, so he hurriedly took Xiao Yu'an away.

Xiao Yu'an was tall, Gu Wanchao pulled it up very hard, almost with a strap, and at the end of a small road, it was actually a cliff.

Xiao Yu'an...... What should we do now......" Gu Wanchao looked at the darkness under the cliff, and it was already at the end of the road at this time.

"Jump down." Xiao Yu'an lost too much blood, and his face was pale, "There is the sound of water, and there is a river below." ”

This move was too risky, and Gu Wanchao also had such a fleeting thought, since Xiao Yu'an said so, Gu Wanchao didn't care.

Gu Wanchao dragged Xiao Yu'an, who was hugging him at the edge of the cliff, and heard footsteps.

It's the killer who catches up.

"I ......" Gu Wanchao looked back at the killer tremblingly, and then looked up at Xiao Yu'an, the other party's eyes were full of tenderness, and a surge of courage rose in her heart for no reason.

She had never seen Xiao Yu'an look like this.

Xiao Yu'an rubbed her head with a big palm, "Don't be afraid, everything has me." ”

This sentence gave Gu Wanchao great strength, and without thinking about it, he fell backwards.

The feeling of falling was very bad, Gu Wanchao felt that he was going to appear on the Yama Hall with Xiao Yu'an in the next moment, and at the moment before falling into the water, Xiao Yu'an suddenly tightened his arms and held her firmly in his arms, isolating her from all impacts.

And the price of this is that Xiao Yu'an is completely unconscious this time.

In the icy lake water, Gu Wanchao noticed that Xiao Yu'an was no longer conscious, and she hurriedly dragged him up.

It was much easier to pull people in the water, and when Gu Wanchao jumped out of the water, he used all his strength to drag Xiao Yu'an out of the water.

"Wake up." Gu Wanchao saw that the water around her had been stained red with blood, and she was so frightened that she couldn't give up, so she hurriedly patted Xiao Yu'an.

The latter did not react in any way.

"You don't want to die...... Xiao Yu'an. Gu Wanchao's voice trembled, and his hands touched Xiao Yu'an's body up and down, and only then did he find the wound.
